Black Diamond Bay are a six piece Slo Mo house band of no fixed abode. Their
ominous, brooding sound blends violins, guitars, synths, vocals and live electric
drums that beat somewhere between 95 and 118 BPM. Any faster would
break their rules. They could go slower. There are no rules about that. They just
haven't tried it yet.
They have been described as a 'searing, strutting motorik funk charge' and
combine handsome melodies with stone grooves that draw on many influences to
produce a sound that can genuinely be called theirs and theirs alone. Having been
played on Radio 1, 6Music, Xfm, and BBC Introducing in Leeds, as well as having
toured Britain, they are here to bring Slo Mo to the world.
